Understanding Streams in Snowflake

Vinay, a Data Engineer at GlobalMart, was working on tracking changes in Snowflake tables when he realized that manually monitoring updates, inserts, and deletes was inefficient. Seeking guidance, he approached Rahul, the Senior Architect, who introduced Snowflake Streams as a powerful Change Data Capture (CDC) solution. Through their discussion, Vinay learned how streams track row-level changes, they also explored different types of streams and understood when to use each.
